Question:
Did carrots make me dump?

I had boiled carrots with a piece of fish for dinner tonight and about five minutes after I began eating, I got sick. Could the sugar in carrots cause me to dump? I have had some small amounts of sugar at other times, and I have not been bothered at all. I am almost 7 wks post-op lap roux en y. Thank You    — [Anonymous] (posted on October 6, 2000)

Also, how was the fish cooked?

Carrots could in theory make you dump. Carrots are a "high glycemic" vegetable. The have a lot of sugar in them as vegetables go. They will effect your insulin levels and could kick off more carb cravings. I'd hold off on carrots for a while and then try them some time as a small snack to isolate if that is what made you dump.
